Description: ALKS Alkermes November 07, 2025
Alkermes plc (NASDAQ: ALKS) is an Ireland-based biopharma that develops, markets, and licenses drugs for unmet needs in neurology and psychiatry, primarily in the United States. Its commercial portfolio includes ARISTADA (long-acting injectable for schizophrenia), ARISTADA INITIO, VIVITROL (alcohol-use disorder and opioid-dependence prevention), and the oral antipsychotic LYBALVI, while its pipeline targets additional neurological disorders.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue was $1.22 billion, driven 68 % by ARISTADA sales; cash and cash equivalents stood at $514 million at year-end, providing runway for pipeline advancement; and the company reported a net loss of $84 million, reflecting ongoing R&D spend and amortization of acquisition intangibles.
Strategic partners include multiple Janssen entities, which supply both co-development funding and global commercialization reach. Alkermes also monetizes its proprietary drug-delivery platforms through licensing agreements, adding a non-dilutive revenue stream.
Sector-level drivers that shape Alkermes’ outlook are the expanding U.S. mental-health spending (projected CAGR ≈ 5 % through 2028) and the regulatory environment that increasingly favors long-acting injectables for adherence-critical conditions, both of which can amplify ARISTADA’s market share.
